That’s so cool! I had some friends that were diving for gold under some falls! They were going to the spot to make their dive! On the trail, one of the guys foot slipped on a mossy rock! The sunlight hit the the and it glinted gold! They dug it out and it was a huge piece of quarts and gold! Not sure of the weight, but an awesome find none the less!

over the years, flooding due to rare heavy rain moves this clay like material and covers the nugget. Over millennia this is repeated and more and more overburden is added. Heat bakes into an almost brick like material. Nugget this size would not be moved very far by water, so it's source lode might well be 'upstream' from it's location. Upstream here would refer to the direction of flow of an archaic stream which carried it from the lode. So I think rather then it slowly submerging into the ground because of it's relative density, it was covered by alluvial mud. tom

I hope you didn’t stop checking all around that hole, seems like every channel looking for gold never has any footage of checking to see if there is still a signal

That would explain why there's still gold to find in well worked areas - people get one nugget and then leave

that was the one uploaded. Paleochannel boat anchors don't sit alone, doesn't mean wasn't another caprock divot 100m along with multi kilo load

I noticed how he was tilting the metal detector diagonal. It seemed like there was more than one target.

No need in checking around when you planted it there months ago. Come on, do you know any metal detectorist that would not be checking the hole on every other pick swing? That was a really really deep hole, not to many detectors would pick up that deep with a strong signal like they had at the beginning.

Congrats guys that's truly amazing. It's nice to know that our great great great grandparents never got all the good nuggets out of the earth lol.. the river behind my house has alot of gold sitting in it. Back in 1799 a 20 pound solid gold nugget was found then around 1805 another monster nugget was found in the same river / creek that was around 30 pounds not ozs but in pounds... All here in The USA in NC 45 mins from my house. I live in Western NC in Madison county NC. And the river behind my house has been roaring through these mountains for millions of years and it holds alot of Gold and Silver iv found decent amount of Gold in it. The largest was 3 ozs then many small ones I find em daily and a ton of silver ore comes off the mountain into the river I got buckets of silver ore and Gold ore. I hope to find a monster nugget one day n I'm sure it will happen in due time when it's ready to be found I gotta lot of mountain and river to cover and a Silver mine on our property iv gotta work on and a Gold mine that's also on the property but still hidden so mostly tracking it lol but when I find it I'll post a video on my KZbin account this is my fiancees account my S20+ is dead ATM so I'm using my fiancees note 10+ to look up some things to help me out

there was a mine in that part of the country way back in the day. The gold was so thick they had to use a sledge and pick to get it out. It produced a million dollars a week, and lasted for 20 years! I forget the size of the pocket it came out of but is was one huge cavity. I wish I could give you the name but I dont remember.

Even with that big coil you gotta know it's big when you get that deep
